Abstract excerpt
In non-compaction cardiomyopathy (NCCM), there are several echocardiographic and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR)-based quantitative diagnostic indices, current criteria mainly placed on morphological features, and none of the diagnostic indices includes left ventricular (LV) function. LV function and hemodynamics could be normal in NCCM patients. Evaluation of left ventricular function at the subclinical stage,...
